The last three kingdoms

Chapter 985
In addition to the rapid progress of the Tiger Cavalry Army, which took less than two days to rush from Jinyang to Pingyang City, the other three armies led by Liu Yin were not slow, and rushed to Yong'an in four days. Before that, it was Yang County controlled by the Jin army.

With the Tiger Cavalry Army in Fenxi, Liu Yin naturally no longer took the road of Fenxi, but Chen Bing Yong'an, pointing his sword at Yang County, opened up the stance of a decisive battle with the Jin army.

This time Liu Yin went south, and the three armies he brought were the Tiger Army, Wudang Fei Army and Yang'an Army, and the Yong'an Army stayed in Jinyang.Liu Yin went south directly from Yuci, and did not have time to enter Jinyang City at all. The Yong'an Army was left behind to solve the remaining problems of Jinyang City.

The overall layout of Jinyang City has not changed much. The Shu and Jin sides each control half of the city. Although fighting broke out between them, it seems that no one can do anything to the other. The control lines of both sides have always been on both sides of Tangming Street. swing.

In fact, everyone understands that relying on the existing strength of both sides, it can only be a tie in Jinyang City. Neither of them can fully absorb the strength of the other side. If you want to change this stalemate, you must rely on outside forces. If the strength comes to intervene, whoever arrives first with reinforcements can easily control Jinyang City.

Lieutenant Wang Ying of the Jin Army waited anxiously. He hoped that the imperial court could send a strong reinforcement to Jinyang, so that the current deadlock in Jinyang City could be reversed.

But in the end Wang Ying was still disappointed. The Jin army's reinforcements did not come, but the Shu army's reinforcements arrived ahead of time, and it was a whole army of 5000 people.

Without any suspense, the Yong'an army entered Jinyang, swept almost all the blocks in a brutal and destructive manner, and took control of Jinyang City with ease.

Since the Yong'an Army sealed the east gate of Jinyang before entering the city, none of the Jin defenders in Jinyang City could escape. Except for a few who resisted and were killed, most of the Jin soldiers surrendered. up.

Wang Ying was desperate, and his subordinates persuaded him to surrender, but Wang Ying didn't have the courage. After all, he killed Wang Qing himself. If he fell into the hands of the Shu army, he didn't know what would happen. He killed himself and died at the place where he assassinated Wang Qing.

Du Ji, the prefect of Taiyuan in the Kingdom of Shu, let out a long sigh of relief, and looked at Cheng Jing, the prefect of Jin who surrendered with a look of ashes on his face. He still had the last laugh in the two-year secret battle in Jinyang City.

After solving the Jinyang matter, Luo Xi did not stay long. The task Liu Yin entrusted to him was actually quite heavy. In addition to Jinyang, the Jin army controlled Yangyi, Qixian, Zhongdu and other places. It was also the place where the Yong'an army needed to attack. Liu Yin's main force had no time to clean up these areas, so they could only leave it to Luo Xilai to deal with the aftermath.

Of course, this is not difficult for Luo Xi. Although the Jin army controls many counties in the Jinzhong area, its strength is extremely limited. Luo Xi swept all the way, but he can easily take these cities. Time matters.

And Liu Yin faced Wen Yang, and it was a real hard fight.

The four armies of the Shu army totaled 6 horses. Although the Jin army lost a lot, it still had more than 5 troops, and the smaller [-] troops. Wan's reserve force can be reinforced at any time, which is why Wen Yang dared to set up a decisive battle in Gaoliangyi.

Now the three infantry corps of the Shu army are in the north of Yang County, and one cavalry corps is in the west of the Fen River in Pingyang City, vaguely forming a semi-encirclement trend against the Wenyang Army in Gaoliangyi.

The weather at the end of March was sunny and sunny, and it was probably the most suitable for fighting under such weather conditions. Liu Yin did not advance lightly, but advanced step by step. The three infantry troops lined up in a pin-shaped formation, with Gao Yuan's tiger infantry acting as the arrowheads, Zhang Le's Wudang flying army on the left rear flank, and Zhao Zhuo's Yang'an army on the right rear flank. They hugged into a ball and moved forward slowly.

Such a tight formation hardly gives Wenyang any chance to sneak attack. Liu Yin is good at raids and surprise attacks, so he naturally knows where the emergency of defense is. It may be gathered and wiped out by the Jin army, so Liu Yin arranged the three infantry corps in a font-shaped formation, leaning on each other, even if the Jin army came to attack, they would have nowhere to attack.

As for the Tiger Cavalry Army, Liu Yin ordered them to stand still on the west bank of the Fen River for the time being, and then join them when the main force of the Shu Army arrived.

Wen Yang really wanted to launch a sneak attack, but seeing the formation of the Shu army, he quickly gave up. It's normal to think about it. Will the master who can play the battle of Anguo give you a chance to divide and encircle him?

Wen Yang also immediately shrank his troops, gave up Yang County, and transferred all the defenders in Yang County to Gaoliangyi. Since the Shu Army was huddled together, Wen Yang certainly would not give the Shu Army a chance to defeat them.

All fighters use righteousness and oddness to win. On the battlefield, oddness and righteousness complement each other. The real contest is the real strength of the two sides. The real commander of the army will not leave it to the opponent to display tricks. If there is no chance, a good fighter has no great achievements, which also shows this truth.

Gaoliangyi is a small town in the east of Fenshui in Pingyang County. It is located between Pingyang, Yangxian and Xiangling. On weekdays, this inconspicuous town would not attract the attention of the world at all, but at this moment At that time, the two armies of Jin and Shu invested more than [-] troops in formation around Gaoliang Township, and a big battle was about to kick off.

The reason why Wenyang chose to station troops in the small town of Gaoliang was because of the terrain around Gaoliang. The terrain here is flat and open, which is more conducive to cavalry operations.

You must know that the cavalry of the Jin State has always had an overwhelming advantage over the Shu army. Although the State of Shu has captured the land of horses in Yongliang in recent years and has made great progress in the field of cavalry, in terms of its background, it is still The state of Jin is much deeper, and it has the upper hand in both the number of cavalry and combat effectiveness.

Especially after the Jin cavalry was generally equipped with high bridge saddles and bilateral stirrups, their combat effectiveness rose sharply, and the Jin cavalry was more powerful than the previous Wei state.

Of course, the first thing to thank should be Liu Yin. It is precisely because he pioneered the high-bridge saddle and double-sided stirrup that the level of cavalry has made a qualitative leap. The cavalry is at the same level in terms of equipment, and what really needs to be contested is the combat effectiveness of the cavalry on both sides.

For this, Wen Yang is still full of confidence.
